SPONSORS

Homeward Bound is largely self-funded, with each participant contributing towards the cost of travel and accommodation on the boat — as well as their own time.

We are currently approaching a range of other funding sources to offset the $US31,000 per person cost of the program. The primary cost, in excess of the normal cost of a trip to Antarctica, is for the four programs that will be delivered on-board, the on-board faculty, materials and project management.

We are incredibly grateful to the following corporate sponsors of Homeward Bound!
